+R or -R?

I've been looking into buying a dvd burner and for once, not making an impulse buy. The two I'm looking at are the Pioneer A04 and the HP DVD200xi. The Pioneer is -R and the HP is +R(A true +R, not +RW). VCDhelp.com is a great source of info but I see mixed comments on -R and +R dvd's working on my stand alone dvd player, a Philips DVD711. Some people say each kind of dvd works great some have had no success with either. Any comments on either drive and/or format? If anyone would be willing to burn me a -R or a +R disc, that would be great. I would reimburse you.

So far the Pioneer A04 I picked up for $345 has been great. The discs have worked in my PS2 (Movies and games) and SONY DVP-CX850d. I can sent you a DVD-R of a movie I've burned just send me an e-mail with your address to [email protected].

Has a standard been set? Is the Pioneer DVD burner one of the standard that could win. Which DVD burner should i buy and when do we exect a standard to be announced?

DVDKrayzie,
Could I get a copy to? I really hate to buy a DVD burner and not have the burned movies not work in my DVD player. I have the Sony 530D which is listed in the above post. What software did you burn your DVD with? I just got ULEAD DVD burning software and i am hoping I can use it. You can make some really cool menu's and such. Does your movie have menu's?

yea my movies have menus, they are exactly like the originals. I just used Nero to burn it. i sent off my only test DVD but if you want to send me a DVD-R ill burn it and ship it back to you.

DVDKrayzie, I am fairly certain you are talking about copyrighted movies here, not ones that you produced yourself. The copying and sharing you are more than hinting at is illegal and the reason I had to close this thread. This is a warning for you to not participate in any discussion this way again.
